Hey kiddos. Having a shit week. Got canned - in a most uncerimonious way. Hooray. Appointment at the hospital Thursday. My life is a general suckfest for which I have no one to blame but myself. More to come, no doubt. "I'm not dead yet!" |

Help me, please, men. What kind of pheremone am I emitting? I ordered breakfast and the cook hit on me. I was walking out of the ladies' room and the janitor hit on me. I don't even look remotely hot today. Nada on the hot front. It's not a full moon. What the hell? Gah! Ask anyone - I'm a gigantic pain in the ass. |

Despite my decidedly melancholy state this morning, I had a lovely evening. Just a simple dinner at Thai Vegetarian with artisfun.

Now, on to my hellish Wednesday. |

My answers included. . .
1. What is your favorite dessert? straight up whipped cream (take note artisfun)
2. What is your favorite candy? ("Mr. Turtle, how many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop? I don't know, I never made it without biting. . .") Just kidding, actually, my favorite is Swedish Fish, I think - it just doesn't sound as naughty.
3. What is your favorite ice cream? Dulce de leche or (gulp) Ben and Jerry's Phish Food |

Had such a good time last night with dirtyolman, ludakiss, caroleann, piskie and especially artisfun (as always). For once, the Rollerderby team I was rooting for won!!! Hooray, Sake Tuyas!
Anyway, all together a splendid weekend. Managed to wake up on the left side of the bed twice, which doesn't usually happen on a Saturday AND Sunday morning, so that was nice. All I know is that I'm at work, but I've still got a smile on my face, so that's a good thing, no? |

Sorry, I may be a buck 25 soaking wet, but I care when my friends feel hurt and I'm tough as nails and want to kick ass when they feel slighted. Throw your slings and arrows at me as you will, at least I'm working on realizing my strengths and weaknesses, working on both, and not trying to fool "the general public," my “significant” other or anyone else. Particularly when people that used to be my friends disappoint the almighty hell outta me and everyone else.
Despite my alleged "attempts at anything", I know the truth and so does everyone else involved. How egotistical to you have to be to think I would want to be with you? I'm not the type to hide her intentions. I know the things implicated and said and know enough to understand what was meant.
I also know that the only time I’ve contacted anyone after an incident in their lives was to express concern over their well-being, whether they've been right or wrong. I knew the answer, but was checking on a friend, anyway. Screw me for trying to be nice for once.
And as far as any jealousy issues that have been raised to others, I have more on my hands than I can handle, and as I recall, could be with certain people should I have chosen (i.e. you got dumped). I know who I can be with and am perfectly happy with him (“disgustingly” according to people named Ed). So there’s no ulterior motive here, beyond the fact that there are things being said and implied behind my back. You know who you are, you know it's true, and I don't even care enough to see a denial. I know everyone’s trying to save their own asses, but frankly, I don’t have anything to lose here – including my ass, as I am, by all accounts, assless. |

Surprisingly enough, Huntsville is a cool town. I wish I had a little more non-work-related time there to check it out. If we don't close on the market soon, I'll probably get to return, though.
I hate shopping in general, but my boss has a thing for thrift stores, which I LOVE. We had opportunity to go to a few in both Huntsville & Ft. Payne, so that was fun. I got some really tacky stuff that makes me smile, including a pair of these weird, bright green, hand-knitted slipper socks (obviously never used).
Met some people, had some fun outside of business networking. Everyone was very nice and we got some potential leads. It went well enough for my boss to inform me that I needed to make an order for my own business cards. Hooray!
Thanks again to artisfun for shopping with me Sunday. He was such a trooper. We both hate shopping, yet (gulp), both had to admit that we had a good time. Yikes.
Trivia tonight at the 'Shroom with heavily medicated dirtyolman. Good times. . . |

I'm giving blood in an hour. I have a feeling they may not let me, due to recent health. However, I have an appointment, and I will at least try. I hate needles (SO SO MUCH!), but I think it's right to give if you are able. We'll see, I guess. I feel okay today, other than emotionally. |

Last night, I spent a long time last night crying a whole bunch, feeling sadness, regret, self-pity, etc. I've no excuse for it whatsoever. I have a brilliant, sweet, loving and attractive boyfriend (yes, he's been labeled) that I have done nothing in my life to even begin to deserve. I have a job that is going well and paying my bills. I've managed to weed out (most) of the people that are detrimental to my life and have the best best friend EVER. I get to go roller skating (maybe) with piskie on Wednesday (so so cool to see ya, btw). I'm sick as a dog, but I still feel good. |

[Aug. 11th, 2006|03:31 pm] |
Perhaps I'm doing my spring cleaning a bit late, but I couldn't be happier about anything I'm sweeping out of my life. I feel loved and, more importantly, love. I'm learning who has been a waste of my time (however little time it was). I'm trying to concentrate on the positive aspects of my existence and make them grow.
Someone pour me some hemlock - I'm feeling way too healthy.
"People talkin' and I'm watching
As flashes of their faces go black and white
And fade to yellow in a box in an attic
But I never thought so much
Could change, now I don't miss anyone
I don't miss anything
What a shame cause I used to be a sentimental guy." -Ben Folds |

I can't get the smile off of my face today. Part of it is the music I'm listening to, part of it the gem of a man I'm lucky enough to be dating, part of it the bonding I'm doing here at work, part of it my best friend, part of it my life falling into place enough that 7 AM fights aren't throwing me off course. Look out, here I come with a smirk and a mean right hook, kids. |

I like my job. Seriously. But for some reason today, despite not being in a bad mood, I'd rather be anywhere else. In bed with my dogs and a good book, artisfun's arms sound heavenly (or a bathtub, swimming pool, bed, hurricane), etc. - the dangers of being smitten (yes, I am, shut up). Ugh. I think this must be what happens when you're forced to spend your lunch hour with co-workers. |

I can really do very little until my Net meeting at 1 PM when apparently all my computer issues will be magically dissolved.
On brighter notes, I might be able to leave early if I get this computer stuff straightned out. artisfun has generously given an affirmative response to my request for him to reverse my utter cheerlessness. My boots match my hair color (I'm not sure this is a good thing, but I kinda like it).
Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend. |

I look like crap today. I feel like crap today. My presence at work right now is 100% physical. I hate that. My boss is sick, so she’s already told me to go home anytime I so desire. Unfortunately, I don’t get paid sick days yet, so if I leave, my next check will be short. Still, it seems so useless to be here, unable to focus. It would help if my computer and every type of software I use were functional in any way. Meh. |

My hair is crazy red today. Burgundy, a bit, I think? Perhaps not the best choice meeting my boss' boss for the first time this AM? I think he will get a better look over the lunch I've just become aware that I'll be having with him later. Wow. Go, Me! |
